Day 1: Field Report

Another day had passed, so it's time for the conclusion or field report of what transpired yesterday. Yesterday's assignment was to strike up a conversation with 5 strangers regardless of age, sex and profession. On daytime yesterday, I was able to make 2. First was when I bought a pack of cigarette, I asked the fellow behind the cashier what time they close and he responded that they close at 2AM. Second one was when walking back to the office, it was raining, saw a man trying not to get wet and told him, the weather was unpredictable nowadays and he affirmed.



There was an event later that evening at Excess Superclub that I was going to. I invited two of my friends to come but unfortunately only one of them made it but she brought along her girl friend. Let's call my friend Miss N. Miss N is actually a member of www.manilatonight.com (MTC) too but it was actually my first time meeting her so I was kinda excited as well. She's quite popular in MTC among the guys because of one field report (FR) that one guy made regarding their discreet tryst. We met at the venue, Excess Superclub, where she came along with her friend, who let's call Miss L.

I rate Miss N's face an 8, body a 7, fashion a 9 and personality a 9. Miss L is petite, whose face and body I rate a 5, fashion a 6 and personality an 8. Due to their endearing personality I felt the connection with the two instantly like we've been friends for quite some time. We arrived at way past 10. We proceeded to the receptionist and I was greeted by Shyne, the event coordinator - a slim morena, with silky long black hair. While she led me to our reserved cocktail table, I tried to build a rapport with her. Too early by clubbing time standards, there were only a handful of people, mostly oldies like early 40's to say the least.

Time flies so fast, Miss N needed to go home early at 11, as she still has work the next day at 6, so Miss L had to leave too. "Let's have a picture", I suggested. But the two were hesitant. Anything that mattered that night, they wanted it discreet.  I brought out my camera, and started taking pictures of the place. The cocktail table I reserved was on the 5 o'clock position with respect to the stage, where the models will show their wares. Good position, I thought, perfect for taking pictures. It's good to be taking pictures but I hate it when I'm not on it. When it came then to say goodbye, I thanked Miss N and Miss L for dropping by. Short and sweet.

I befriended the waiter soon after. I couldn't afford to have pictures taken with these hot models without me in it. Without hesitation, he became my wingman ala photographer that night...

It was 11:30PM. As the models started lining up on the stairway beside the stage,  the hosts were already delivering their lines which pumped up the crowd. The sultry models were wearing a tank top and shorts. Each lady walking down the runway was a sight to behold as their name were called one-by-one. The horde of aspiring photographers or should I say voyeurs gathered in front covering my once direct sight of the stage. Were able to get some good shots, but it was my wingman who made the better shots. The models were given time to talk to the crowd and asked for votes. That's where my wingman shined. He was able to get me close to these ladies and set me up. He was callling the shots. So, I never did felt I was alone that time. One lady stood out. Let's call her Miss January. She was one of the models battling it out for the Lady of the Night Title. I never did notice she was there until my wingman told me about her. She's pretty and sexy like every model that night. But what I liked about her, was that she was the one who engaged me to a conversation. "Sir, bait nya." I heard my wingman telling me. I didn't apply any routines yet, just did what naturals do I suppose. Nothing extraordinary. She was holding a box of the product of the promoter that night. She seems to know the stuff but it is not for me. She then asked me where my friends are, I told her I'm alone. That surprised her. She told me to vote for her for the "Lady of the Night" title that night. Regarding the product she was selling me, if I have further questions, I can contact her. That ring bell to my ears, so I did get her number. Tried to ring it and then texted her for her to know it was me. And before she left off, I gave her promotional ballpen of my business. She appreciated the small gesture.

I met some guys too. I met students from one of the leading engineering schools. I talked with someone working for a leading medicine company. And also, I talked with the organizer himself. Getting a guestlist will be much easier now :)

1:30AM, I saw Miss January some two cocktail tables away. That time, I approached her, and asked her how she's doing. And she introduced me to her friends: another pretty model, one guy and her cousin. Her pretty model friend is hot too. I think I like her better than Miss January. Everytime, I approach Miss January, she seem to be trying to get my attention too. So, I stayed there for couple of minutes. Then I handed over to her vote cards, all 20 points to boost her winning chances to become the Lady of the Night. Her pretty model friend, asked what about her stubs? So I gave another 10 points. That makes it all 30 points. Then I excused myself, and went back to my table.

2:00AM, I was almost at my drinking limit. Before leaving, I saw Shyne once again and I congratulated her for the succesful event. I gave her my promotional pens and she thanked me for those. She asked for my number and I got her number as well. I remember the bouncer asking me, "Boss, ano plano mo dyan?" I turned around smiling, "wala brad, business lang."

I enjoyed the night although some booty shakin dancing with girls was missing, I think I'm getting better but still have a lot to improve on, of course :)

So, I think I passed Day 1 assignment, and now moving on to Day 2. :)

Wait, there's more. I send an SMS to Miss January the moment I reached home. Here's the flow of the exchange:
Me: Hi. I enjoyed the party and your singing just got me pumped up. It was short but sweet. I just got home safe and I hope you and your friends and cousin gets home safely. Good mornin ;)
Miss January: Hi, thank you :) ingat See you around
